Tom Bradys triumphant return from suspension at Cleveland in Week 5 relegated the New England Patriots remarkable month without him to footnote status in the public conversation. His 406 yards and 96.4 Total QBR score led the league Sunday, shifting the focus back to the Patriots Super Bowl prospects with their legendary QB back in place.Jimmy Garoppolos impressive cameo as Bradys short-term replacement remains on the books, however, and the ramifications are considerable. Brady, arguably the greatest quarterback in league history, will be approaching his 41st birthday when Garoppolo can become a free agent in March 2018.
